Bloody hurricane. I was all set for a little jaunt to the keys. Probably going to pop up to NY to escape the bother of the winds.
AFter watching Teh Craft today on TV, I think I'll add a part in the upper level class about muggles doing magic. It would be a good connection with the Voodoo classes.
Rory - I have a bone to pick with you. Wait...heh...um, yeah, abck to my orig thought..' Your damn beasts are a menace. I walked in to my office to find a large reptile chewing happily on my copy of the Silmarillion!!! This was not just any copy, but a first printing!!! Look at this, you're making me use copious amounts of exclamation points!!!
Please keep those beasts out of my office.
Now that that is out of my system, I can vent about the term. Some of the students this term have been rough. I asked them to put their wands away and got death glares from some. I mean, what did they think they'd be doing in Muggle Studies, anyway? One particularly creepy student infered that he thought the class meant to study muggles in cages or something. At this school, to be that creepy is truly an accomplishment.
Oh, and I would like to know why I already have a revivied first year? Cezar! Rory! Can't you two keep the students alive for at least one freakin term? Sure, a student that quietly sits there and does work seems optimum, but they don't really add much to the discussions. I asked the first year about his opinions on muggle views of wizards as seen in The Hobbit and all I got in responce was, "Uuuuuuuuuuuugh. Uuuuueeeeergh." He looked as if he was revived by a fourth year on Ritalin. Sheesh.
Headmistress, I have a student who can't read. He's a first year, but I think he's about sixteen years old. I'm also not too sure about his magical capabilities. Have you been enrolling the locals? I don't mind the age, but as I said, he can't read. This is a problem in a highly literature-based class. Oh, and someone botched a memory charm on one of my six years, Rosie Mariquen. She thinks she's back in second year. Melusine, I think you have something to help her with that, right? We used it on that Swedish boy once, I think, after one of Cezar's darts missed VonHahn.
I have a new iPod. I gave my old one to my cousin this summer. This one has twice the space,and nifty new games. I am SO excited. *does happy iPod dance* The gators were eyeing it today. Rory, if those things come anywhere near my iPod, so help me, I'll have a new pair of boots!!
ProfessorVonHahn: Howdy. Prof Goldstein: hey there stud ProfessorVonHahn: Don't make me lasso you and throw you in the corner. Prof Goldstein: that sounds too tempting Prof Goldstein: but no Prof Goldstein: join our chat ProfessorVonHahn: I am trying. Forgive me for being a bit slow. Prof Goldstein: damn texans ProfessorVonHahn: Don't start with me, you pansy. Prof Goldstein: steers and queers, luv
Ah, another year at L'Academie de Magie has come to an end. And I just got alarger iPod - games and music. Love the Apple. This weekend was fun. Went antiquing and got the most precious armoire. Rory sulked a bit and said it was dull. I muggle things that are just dull, ordinary, things that stand there. Last time he helped pick one out it spit my underwear at me when I opened it.
